So lucky to be learning from Emily Meixner, Penny Kittle, and Avina Sharma about college writing. Even luckier to be with my #nerdcampnj friend @oonziela.bsky.social!
I love The Curious Reader! When I helped run #nerdcampnj they were our on-site bookstore!
I know. 😭 We wouldn’t have had #nerdcampnj without it!
And we wouldn’t have gotten to see your Twitter handle in announcements about your teacher of the year win. 😂
Are you an author? Do you know an author? Here's a great chance to interact with a bunch of book nerds in New Jersey! #nErDCampNJ #books #authors

Too many great workshops at #nErDcampNJ! For the curious, here are the notes from the conversation @Kateywrites and I led:

Wow! So many great insights, ideas, and suggestions in "Neurodiversity in MG and YA Literature" talk at #nErDcampNJ with @ibizoboi, @sallyjpla, @hilaryreyl, @MissNikkiIn5th @NicolleMAnthony - check out the notes!

It continues to blow my mind that people who are ostensibly about helping kids learn would not embrace graphic novels to a greater degree. Such a great learning tool! (Plus, they're just fun to read!) #nErDcampNJ #GetGraphicNovels #edchat #tlchat

My Twitter-fu is still weak; think I didn't get this out there. So, Take 2: @AppleMurphy22 and @LauraShovan gave a great talk about their ARC book sharing group - so great! #nErDcampNJ
Huge thanks to @oonziela and the rest of the #nErDcampNJ crew who have put together this amazing experience! #ThankYou #HardWorkPayingOff
Fan-boying a little bit; in a sessions at #nErDcampNJ with @LauraShovan , who wrote one of my favorite verse novels - "The Last Fifth Grade of Emerson Elementary" (If you haven't read it yet, you really should!)
How could you NOT want to read this book?!? #nErDcampNJ has some amazing authors & titles!
@AndreaJLoney
#nErDcampNJ is really getting me thinking and opening my eyes. Lots of conversations that need to happen! Thank you @triciaebarvia!
I haven't been to #nErDcampNJ before, but I think I've found my people - authors treated like rock stars, books discussed like sports... Is this how most folks feel making conversation - relaxed and happy?
😁
For the interested, my #nErDCampNJ chat, "How Do We Stop Literacy Shaming?" is set for Session 3 in B150. Come by and take part! Let's see what we can figure out!
Oh, and did I mention the light - up evil-overlord cat ears?! #nErDCampNJ is pretty great!!
My first #nErDCampNJ is off to an amazing start - just got a stack of books as swag! #books #Nice #GreatDaySoFar
At #nErDCampNJ this weekend, I'm doing a session called "How Do We Stop 'Literacy Shaming'?" - ways to get school stakeholders to let kids "just" read. Hope you can make it!
Here's the proposal, which now includes a link to a shared notes/resources page:
